(4) YA Women Changing the World series. Compelling connections between feminism and environmentalism are woven throughout these biographies of two young activists. The writing is undocumented and frequently sycophantic ("All her life, Marina had felt the suffering of her family and their trees"), but the admiration is justified by the integrity and dedication of the subjects. Scattered throughout are black-and-white photos of uneven quality. Bib., glos., ind. [Review covers these titles: Marina Silva and Winona LaDuke.]
